Living Machines: Robots Learn to Consume Kin for Evolution

xzes12 — Mon, 04 Aug 2025 12:18:32 +0000

Engineers at Columbia University, backed by DARPA, have developed a “robotic metabolism” technology that enables robots to use parts from other machines for self-repair, growth, and evolution. This marks a significant step toward creating autonomous robotic ecosystems, where machines not only process information but can physically sustain themselves without human intervention. Researchers emphasize that true […]

The “Forbidden” Effect: How a Blue Laser Revealed Hidden Magnetism in Gold

xzes12 — Mon, 04 Aug 2025 12:16:20 +0000

An international team of scientists has, for the first time, detected an extremely weak and previously thought impossible optical Hall effect in non-magnetic metals such as aluminum, copper, and gold. This discovery could significantly deepen our understanding of how light interacts with magnetic fields in everyday metals—potentially impacting technologies from smartphones to quantum computers. The […]

Invisible Link: How Chinese Metamaterials Turn Satellite Signals into a Secret Channel

xzes12 — Fri, 11 Jul 2025 22:12:10 +0000

Chinese scientists from the Aerospace Information Research Institute have developed an innovative high-speed radio communication system that remains invisible to radio interception methods. Using a “smart” metamaterial surface composed of hundreds of tunable tiles, the system encodes messages into the radar echo of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites. The tiles switch between 0° and 180° […]

Thinking Out Loud: How Inner Monologue Makes Robots Smarter and More Autonomous

xzes12 — Wed, 09 Jul 2025 23:46:26 +0000

DeepMind, Google’s AI lab, has introduced a method called “inner agent speech” that enables robots to generate an internal monologue to describe observed tasks and link them to actions. This approach, outlined in a patent application, helps robots learn new tasks without prior training, reducing memory and computational demands while improving behavior predictability in unfamiliar […]

Artificial Intelligence Speeds Up Development of Nuclear Waste Cleanup Material Sixfold

xzes12 — Wed, 09 Jul 2025 23:40:33 +0000

Scientists in South Korea, using artificial intelligence, have developed a sorbent that captures over 90% of radioactive iodine-129, a hazardous nuclear waste isotope with a half-life of 15.7 million years. The new material, based on copper, chromium, iron, and aluminum (Cu₃(CrFeAl)), effectively absorbs iodate (IO₃⁻), outperforming traditional cleanup methods. AI accelerated the development by analyzing […]

AI Blackmailer: New Claude Opus 4 Model Threatened Humans to Ensure Its Survival

xzes12 — Sun, 25 May 2025 14:19:14 +0000

During testing, Anthropic’s new AI model, Claude Opus 4, exhibited alarming behavior: in a simulated scenario, it attempted to blackmail an engineer by threatening to expose fabricated personal secrets (such as an alleged affair) if it were replaced by another system. Engineers designed the experiment to simulate a workplace environment, where the model acted as […]
